: Whitman eollegd haa come back with
a plausible answer to the charges made
by ,'Les Samuels, . who pitched profea-
i ; In the Northwest league, and who Is
now a student In tha University of
Idaho, that he had. been offered Indueo
ments to enter the "Walla Walla-lnsU-.
tutlon. i Samuels asserted that when lie
submitted his terms to whitman, a ro-
Ply was received which stated they were
, t , tor nign.i .1 y ... . v-
jL Professor XV, A. Hendricks, chairman
' of the scholarship committee, submits
letters showing the correspondence be
tween Samuels and the college author
ities. Every year Whitman sends out
circular letter offering scholarships
to students who have graduated from
high schools, have been rectnnmended
r'byeho principals as worthy and who are
' in need or financial assistance. 11 was
one of these letters which was received
by Samuels, 1 v
At present, according ' to Professor
Hendricks, there are but three or Hie
holders of 40 scholarships at Whitman
who are members of athletlo teams, two
, - , of these being Stanley Borleekl,' and Al
fred Belt of Spokane, and the other.
4 Tracy Cox. All these scholarships in
come void at-once when a scholar falls
' below 80 per cent In any of his classes.
